I want to say hi to all who signed up and to those who will be following this month.I'm glad to be here again this month.My 1st month was last month myself.I had up and down times,like every body else,but stayed the course pretty much.Lost 7 pounds overall.So,not too bad,and twice as much as I generally do.I weighed 250 pounds 3 1/2 yrs ago. 18 more pounds,I'll be at 100 pound mark.I find I do better with a number goal in mind.I gained 15 pounds 3 months ago,was at 160,then 175..So,that's why I'm here.I lost the 15 pounds last month,but put on 8 pounds when my dr. changed one of my meds.But got 7 pounds back off.So,hope to do better this month.I don't need to lose fast,cause I do want to keep off what I do lose.As long as we go down the scales,keep it off,and be on a life style change,it will be more permanent and lasting.After 90 pounds,that is one thing I've learned.I'm tired of being fat,and am doing something about it.Just 5 pounds a month,3 pounds a month,pick a number,and stick with it,no matter what,meet it.And keep it going.Good luck to all.
